      The fourth title in Maya Angelou's bestselling seven-volume autobiography is reissued in a new look to celebrate its induction to the Virago Modern Classics list in Virago's 50th anniversary year.

      From the beloved and bestselling author of I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BIRD SINGS, this memoir chronicles Maya Angelou''s involvement with the civil rights movement.

      ''A brilliant writer, a fierce friend and a truly phenomenal woman'' BARACK OBAMA

      Maya Angelou''s seven volumes of autobiography are a testament to the talents and resilience of this extraordinary writer. Loving the world, she also knows its cruelty. As a black woman she has known discrimination and extreme poverty, but also hope, joy, achievement and celebration.

      The fourth volume of her enthralling autobiography finds Maya Angelou immersed in the world of black writers and artists in Harlem, working in the civil rights movement with Martin Luther King Jr.

      ''She moved through the world with unshakeable calm, confidence and a fierce grace . . . She will always be the rainbow in my clouds'' OPRAH WINFREY

      ''She was important in so many ways. She launched African American women writing in the United States. She was generous to a fault. She had nineteen talents - used ten. And was a real original. There is no duplicate'' TONI MORRISON
